No. Not enough calories, too much protein, not enough veggies, not enough fruit, not enough dairy, not enough carbs, too much saturated fat (from cheese), not enough "good" fat.



Daily you should eat 1500 (lose weight) to 2000 calories (maintain weight) -- you plan about 700. Daily you should eat 2-3 servings of protein (you plan 4-5), 3-4 servings of whole grain carbs (you plan 1-2), 3-4 servings of low fat dairy (you plan 2, mostly high fat), 2-3 servings of fruit (you plan none), 2 servings of healthy fat (you plan none), 5-7 servings of veggies (you plan 2-3).



Try this instead:



Breakfast - 1 poached egg , 1 piece whole wheat toast, 8 oz low fat milk, 1 tsp canola oil margerine.



Snack- 4 oz low fat yogurt, 1/2 cup cut up fruit.



Lunch - Whole wheat bagel, 2 oz sliced turkey, lettuce, slice tomato, 1/2 cup baby carrots, 8 oz low fat milk, peach.



Snack- 1 oz Cheese Cubes with 6 whole grain, low fat crackers (ie Triscuit)



Dinner - Chicken Salad - 3 oz Chicken , Lettuces , Spinach , Tomatos , Purple Onions with 1 tbsp olive oil vinigrette. Small whole grain pita or whole grain dinner roll. Watermelon.Does This Sound Like A Good Meal Plan For Tomorrow ?
umm.. NO. Cut out the cheese, unless you really want it get reduced fat monterrey cheese. No simple carbs like bagels, instead have Ezekiel sprouted grain bread or something similar.



here is a great example of daily meals for staying fit and lean

Breakfast- 3 egg white and 1 egg omellett with reduced fat monterrey jack cheese, mixed greens, vegetarian chorizo or chicken, mixed veggies (the more colorful the better).

OR

healthy cereal like Optimum Slim/ blueberry cinnammon with skim organic milk.



snack- fruit such as mango, kiwi, peach, etc



Lunch- whole grain bread or sprouted grain bread, turkey slices, cheese, mixed greens, mustard, etc



snack- luna bar, power bar, odwalla bar, etc..



Dinner- fish like tilapia or salmon, chicken, turkey (lean meats), lots of veggies or a sweet potato. Beans are good



try to have a lean source of protein in EVERY meal!!! Very Very important. lots of veggies. try to stay away from pasta and breads. No dark meats. have sorbet instead of ice cream. good fats like olive oil, almonds, avocadoes, etc.. no butter etc...
